The condo was nice, clean only issue was ….. not all lights worked. The light switches didn’t turn anything on. Only light that worked was in the kitchen which wasn’t terrible because of the big windows. That wouldn’t stop me from staying here again. Also communication wasn’t the greatest on which property we were staying at. I was not informed that there were multiple. The first person who checked us in gave us the wrong unit number. Other than all that it was a great time in Toronto :)
